[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dom085:
Depends.

If you have the insurance, you have a $100 deductible.

If not, you probably have to buy yourself a new phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidc23:
i have insurance... well im evoless forever now guys :( mom wont pay..... smh
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gpz1100:
Have your misses pay. Determine which screen you need, then look on ebay or elsewhere. I've read it's not that difficult to replace.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live2ride96:
First of all, to buy the parts would be almost $100 anyway, so there's no point to investing the time to fix it yourself (except maybe to save a FEW bucks). Second of all, if you have the insurance, I'm pretty sure there's no deductible for replacing the screen. The $100 should be for a stolen/lost/water damaged phone, or basically anything that can't be fixed, in which case they simply replace it. The screen is replaceable, and thus should not have a deductible. At least that's the way my local Sprint store explained it. Go to a Sprint store and find out for yourself. You may be pleasantly surprised.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] method115:
What parts are needed for screen replacement? The screen I found is only 45.

Also can you add insurance to your phone after it breaks as long as they don't know?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeLithium:
Was some girl your girlfriend cause if my girlfriend broke my Evo that's deffinatle the only way I would refer to her too :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Technically yes, but they might find it funny that just got insurance and now have a claim. But they will honor it still.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] method115:
Are you sure about this I looked on Sprints site and they said you can get it within 30 days of purchasing your phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
You have 30 days from the date you purchased the phone to apply for insurance. But FYI, if you dont have it now, dont add it then make a claim the next day. You need to wait at least a few weeks, or they will deny your claim.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
That's the exactly point I was trying to make.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cor4twenty:
well there's a couple of things going on here

1) Yes, there is a $100 deductible if you have insurance. A couple of weeks ago it would've been fixed free of charge but, Sprint did a "revision" to the new TEP policy and they're no longer covered

2) It's about the same to fix the screen yourself and to have it replaced through insurance with deductible, give or take a couple of dollars.

3) You can add insurance after 30 days if you speak to a cool rep, and make the claim within days, again if you speak to a cool rep.

4) That sucks!!

Can I use my EXT4 compatible bootable CWM SD to flash hc emmc ver2?
[Nook Color General] vista1984:
yes, make sure the version of 3.0.0.6 before flashing.
[Nook Color General] bartonkt:
Yup, thats how I did it. Make sure and follow the directions to format /system, /data/, and /cache, and unmount /data & /system, then load the .zip.....and be patient like a bastard. Don't touch that thing till it says its complete!
[Captivate Themes and Apps] ronii1123:
Nitr8 created a BETA rom using the Gingerbread leak for the i9000, I was hoping someone might be able to turn the theme used into a flashable zip, the theme is very different from traditional Gingerbread themes, considering it uses Samsung's TouchWiz version

Anyone have any idea why when I try to download this app from the web market it tells me my phone is not compatible? It is not even in the market on the phone even if I emulate t-mobile. WTF?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] shaolin95:
What ROM? Works fine with Paragons for example.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] hayslett4:
Xfinity v2.0.2

I've had Xfinity v2.0.2 installed for about a month now without any issues... Everything seems to work well on the phone. We just don't have OnDemand in Lynchburg, VA yet so it's really only good to check email and see what's on through the channel line up. I'm running Perception 10.2 with Firebird 2 v1.0 and the updated modem from 10.4. Hope some of this helps.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] JamesR913:
I am running Supernova JS5.

This is a new Xfinity TV app that lets you control the cable box from from your phone (Channel changing) not the old xfinity app that controls the DVR and does on demand. Why they have two I dont know
[Captivate Themes and Apps] shaolin95:
Supernova, Phoenix and the other one by DGR8 all seem to have issues with the Market (buildprop I assume). For example I always have to edit it in order to be able to download FPSE emulator as otherwise it won't show.

Could be related to the same problem.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] JamesR913:
how would I go about fixing it
[Captivate Themes and Apps] upNsmokeAllDay:
Works fine on serendipity also and shows up in the market.
[Thunderbolt General] martyotaku:
WOW ZDNET is reporting that Thunderbolt will be first phone with Tiered data PLANS WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is Horrible
[Thunderbolt General] magnafides:
This launch is turning into one huge joke. Could they have possibly screwed this up any more?
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
Proof?

The 4g is tiered for sure so I don't care

The 3g is throttled after 5 gb

So that should be what you expect
[Thunderbolt General] martyotaku:
proof? go to zdnet....and i hate when people say PROOF lol

Article is from today!
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
If its just said on a site then is hear say and there's no proof, is go but I'm on my phone
[Thunderbolt General] martyotaku:
no ZDNET which is a reputable site is QUOTING the CFO of Verizon Wireless..... just go to the site. Ofcourse nothing is 100% but the way its stated its all but certain!

Its not 100% that i will ever be ble to take a Sh&t again but odds are I will ... lolol
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
Makes sense if its only 4g, they just barley changed it so that its throttled server side

If they become ATT and throttle all data then screw Verizon
[Thunderbolt General] bogatyr:
I see no mention of this on their 4G mobile page.

EDIT: Found it using Google:

http://www.zdnet.com/blog/btl/veriz...ing-very-shortly-lte-tiered-pricing-too/45482

Blog post though...

[Thunderbolt General] tazzpatriot:
well dont u think verizon would have said something? i just talked to a rep and they said that if a change like that was gunna happen ,, they woulod have been told ,, also said as far as a release ,, i was told all she was told was it will be released sometime this month lol :rolleyes:
[Thunderbolt General] bogatyr:
Eh, I don't trust blogs much anyways. If they do make it tiered, I'll pass on upgrading though.
[Thunderbolt General] Bern612:
I guess I don't know what tier means. But are yall talking about the 5 gig for 50.00 & the 8 gig for 80.00 plan or something else.
[Thunderbolt General] aostl:
Some concept but on a phone.

Prices will be different. That sucks
[Thunderbolt General] magnafides:
It will probably be very similar to AT&T's data caps, that is, not at all in-line with the actual cost of bandwidth.
[Thunderbolt General] aostl:
What's on at&TS plan? I been on vzw for ever.
[Thunderbolt General] iwanaleya:
Nor do I trust CSR's and their wealth of information, or lack there of if you will.:p
[Thunderbolt General] contractkilla:
i agree with everyone jumping to conclusions way too fast just because some random unnamed person said that the phone will be released on a certain date or some other rumor.

as for the "tiered" data i really hope verizon doesn't implement anything like at&t's data plans and i hope there will still be an option for unlimited i being stuck to a number doesn't work for me lol
[Thunderbolt General] tazzpatriot:
Lol I think its funny.. I can't think of anything like this haha.. people going nutts for a phone I not once heard Verizon say what day they was releasing it .. id lmao if they decided to skip it haha
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
I read the tiered is supposed to bring in more customers who don't use much data

As in a tiered plan to make the phone cheaper but retaining the unlimited plan, wherever you got your source they only quoted a single sentence, not the whole announcement. They also announced that the TB is coming soon if that even matters anymore
[Thunderbolt General] chimpsnest:
Is there a plan or option (on any carrier) that allows for data via wifi only? That way you wouldn't be using your carriers data bandwidth you would be using your home/work or Starbucks network.

Just curious.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pezley:
is there a way yet to back up my contacts and SMS's.

I have an issue with my Omnia 7 and the first thing id like to try is a firmware restart but dont want to untill everything is backed up.

thanks guys
[Windows Phone 7 General] dtboos:
Contacts should be automatically backed up / synced to your email/facebook ect.

Unfortunately there aren't any ways to save mms/sms yet.

If you are rooted use a app like root explorer and go to your root and navigate to /data/app and long press and hit send you can also long press copy then navigate to your download folder and paste it then send it from there

Yes they did. Said it existed on all of the new TB's they've sold and would not exchange the phone for that reason. It's not really that bad but in the dark, it's annoying.

what is this? what is it suppose to do? (sorry for stupid question)

my phone is already at the original state...

or is it like if you brick it or jailbreak it or something?

I know i am hard headed, But i dont get this stupid link. I go to the site. I choose File Factory Basic. I put in the Captcha words and i click the button. A new window opens and its a commercial, Every time. I wait for something to happen but nothing does. There is no download on the page that opens. Its just a screen with video and some stupid links. The other links at the bottom of the download page do nothing when i try them. Has anyone got this to work?

Try this... http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9L8HTWT8
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Padron26:
I just had to use this, cause my TB would drop 3g constantly, every few sec even with a Droid X and Evo in the same room with full 3g and 4g.

For some it may be a little confusing to do.

It worked great, i just had to reboot it a few times after the process cause when i would unlock the screen it would go into the white HTC screen and freeze.

1. place the zip on the root of your sd card

2. rename the zip, PG05IMG

3. Power off The TB

4. Boot into Hboot by pressing Power and Volume down at the same time

5. Follow the instructions givin threw hboot

Thanks for all the help.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] killian1212:
So does thos remove root? I am rooted and experiemce constant 3g drops aswell.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Padron26:
yeah it removes root and turns s on.

This will reset you tb the way it was when you took it out of the box. (New)

It didnt help me with the 3g dropping, i ended up getting a new sim card, then a new tb. The ne tb hasnt dropped signal in a few days. I especially noticed perfect signal when using sirius radio. Before it would drop signal every few min.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Padron26:
This would be used so you could return or exchange your tb. To keep from voiding the warranty.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] McLabia:
The Torrent is alive and kicking, I have it on force upload. Ill keep it going for a month. Worked smooth and perfect so that I didnt keep my warranty void.

Thank you both! The Torrent is alive and kicking, I have it on force upload. Ill keep it going for a month. Worked smooth and perfect so that I didnt keep my warranty void.

For those other noobs like myself that are wondering, you dont need to do anything but what Pardon posted. You cant(...errr probably cant?) mess it up. lol.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Padron26:
regarding to some emails that I have recently received, not sure if they were from xda or other forums.

it is a very good idea to save this file on your SD card, in a SEPARATE FOLDER . so if you run into a problem when your away from home you can flash it by just moving the file to the root of your memory card then boot into hboot. I keep mine in a folder named Roms that have this file and a few different Roms/Kernels on it.

or get a small spare SD card and place this file on it. for emergency.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] McLabia:
Good call there. Both really good suggestions. Especially cause you can get like a 1 gig SD for like two bucks.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:
whats the difference between just flashing this file and following these steps http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1009423
[Thunderbolt Android Development] McLabia:
Over 9000 easy points. lol. With this method all you do is start your phone while holding down the volume down and power button and load this file from hboot.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] bmt626:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] McLabia:
Thats the way it worked for me and to be honest, I like easy. lol.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jrocker23:
i just want to make sure, but you know this is the old stock from the original release. This is not the new leaked one from yesterday..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ridobe:
Ah yes. What I meant was I was having problems with my phone and got a replacement. Out with the old, in with the new. It's rooted and soon will have the new updates.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ballisticn8:
thx to the op and to the person who posted the megaupload links (too lazy to go back and read).

needed to take my tbolt back due to battery/signal/heat issues. Yes I know 4G is down currently, been having problems prior with the signal (4G & 3G) dropping in and out (even with the newer and the combo radios from adrenalyn (sp?). Since I didnt have this before I am going to be saving it to my sd card to keep as suggested for an OH SH!T backup in case I ever need to take my phone back again.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] oscar615:
SO if I run this it takes it back to stock? I can then run the OTA update? that I have been having problems getting? Ir do I need to somehow turn it to s-off before I run the OTA?

Yes, that will work.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] oscar615:
So I have it on my sd card now. In HBOOT, do I click factory reset or recovery?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] fooshack:

is this a common issue with the original release of the tbolt?

[Thunderbolt Android Development] oscar615:
I tried both options, factory reset and recovery in HBOOT, and both booted clockwork recovery. which option in clockwork should I choose. There is the install zip from sdcard option, but the file no longer has a zip extension. Should I add that back on?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] oscar615:
I have the file on my sd card. renamed it pg05img with no .zip extension. rebooted into HBOOT. No instructions there. I tried both the factory reset and recovery options. Both took me into clockwork recovery. which option do I need to use. I tried the backup and restore option in CW and tried to restore my original nandroid backup that I made immediatly after rooting and installing Rom manager. But it would not resotre due to an "error while error while formatting /system" error and stopped. rebooted the phone and no am stuck at the white htc screen. any thoughts on how to get this restored and the phone running properly?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] oscar615:
Pulled the battery and tried to get to hboot again. goes straight to CW.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] sparhawk36:

I can't believe you un-buried this thread when you could have waited to get home to download it. Someone else brought the gingerbread leak back up and people started to think there was a new one when in fact it was the old one.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ballisticn8:
And people like you are why I don't post much over here at xda... Really, un-buried the thread, what are you an idiot? At the time of my post the thread was only 2 and a half weeks old from its last post, are you a baby, is 2 and a half weeks really all that great of a length of time for you in your life?

Maybe what I should have done is start a new thread, you know, instead of using the existing one that was only a couple of weeks old. As far as people not reading the thread and getting it confused with a gingerbread leak, hmm, maybe they should read a little more carefully before flashing random files in hboot to their phones.

:rolleyes:
